It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where a kiss of love can kill you
And there's death in every tear
And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight we're reaching out and touching you
Bring peace and joy this Christmas to West Africa
A song of hope where there's no hope tonight
Why is comfort to be feared, why is to touch to be scared
How can they know it's Christmas stime at all?
Here's to you
Raise a glass for everyone
Here's to them
And all their years to come
Can they know its Christmases time at all
Feed the world let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world let them know it's Christmas time again
Let them know it's Christmastime again
